Hi,

versuche mal folgendes:

Lade Dir ein offizielles rom deines providers herunter. Dort findest Du dann

eine Datei welche wie folgt heißt: "RUU_signed.nbh"

Diese benennst Du um in: "HERMIMG.nbh" (ohne Anführungen)

kopierst die Datei auf die formatierte microSD Karte und

bringst das Phone in den Bootloader Modus (den linken und rechten

Hardwarebutton (seitlich) gleichzeitig drücken und mit dem Stift in

den Warmreset Button). Dann sollte das Telefon in den 3-farbigen

Bootloader Mode gehen und nach einigen Sekunden das Image von

der SDcard flashen. Es muss aber ein offzielles sein (entweder WM5

oder WM6) sonst, funktioniert es nicht, weil der Code nicht zertifiziert

ist. Lass uns wissen ob es gefunzt hat. :cool: :cool:

Sorry for explaining in german native, but this guy seems to have problem

with detailed instructions in english :o

Hey guys

I bought my son a fire for 50 dollars. It came with a 32 gig sd card and he has run out of space. I have moved some games to sd card but still running low on space. Looked at the apps and the say they have been moved to sd but the sd still has 28 of 29 gig left. I'm confused. I do have Google play store installed on here no root though.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] cd2xtac:
Hi to All!: I'm new to this forum and you may consider me a newbie, willing to learn from you and share my experiences in the near future. Just recently I managed to root my Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G900V running Lollipop latest release (OK3) following this tutorial (thanks a lot to jrkruse for that!!). Now I'm trying to install a Custom Recovery, I tried Safestrap (Safestrap-KLTEVZW-NCG-3.75-B03.apk), ClockworkMod (philz_touch_6.41.6-klte.tar) and TWRP (twrp-2.8.7.0-klte, tar & img versions) and this is what happened:

----Safestrap App installed successfully but failed to install Recovery.

----ClockworkMod (Philz Touch variant) failed to flash with Odin.

----TWRP succeeded to install via ADB shell, replaced Stock Recovery but gave this error:

''RECOVERY BOOTING...

RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING''

I ended flashing Stock OK3 to have at least Stock Recovery again!, it's known OE1, OG5 and OK3 updates prevent downgrading, I want to downgrade to 4.4.4 to solve some wi-fi issues I've been having since Lollipop updates.

Some help about this subject will be very appreciated!!

Thanks a lot in advance to all members of this awesome forum!!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] landshark68:
On OK3 the bootloader is locked. You cannot downgrade to 4.4.2 or 4.4.4 or any other previous version. You also cannot install custom recoveries like ClockworkMod or TWRP. You are relegated to Safestrap or FlashFire as discussed in jrkruse's threads.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] painiac:
You can ONLY use SafeStrap. TWRP and Clockworkmod cannot load because we have a locked bootloader.

You must flash a kitkat kernel to boot into safestrap, which I gather you didn't do. Then when you're done in Safestrap, flash a safestrap-flashable lollipop kernel BEFORE EXITING SAFESTRAP to boot back into your ROM.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] cd2xtac:
@ landshark68
[MENTION=3529193]painiac[/MENTION]

Thank both for your replies!, let's see if I misunderstood something: flashing NI2 Stock Kernel with Odin will give the possibility to boot into Safestrap and flash zip of Stock NI2 ROM (4.4.4) or will I remain tied to OK3 even if I flash the KitKat Kernel?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] landshark68:
You will remain tied to OK3

[MENTION=7263734]cd2xtac[/MENTION]

I'm just curious about the whole flashing a custom recovery part you were talking about..

It let you flash one?

Normally I'd just shrug a thread like this off but when you said you tried to boot into recovery and saw

RECOVERY BOOTING...
RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING

that means it actually let you flash a custom recovery.

So my real questions here are, in download mode, does it say Knox 0x1?

And/or after you tried to boot into twrp, did it say "set warranty bit: recovery"?

This part makes me curious because on a locked bootloader, we shouldn't be able to flash a custom recovery.

Or maybe we can and just can't boot into it.

I haven't looked into this much because I've always just accepted that a locked bootloader means we need to use SS or FF and can't flash custom ROMs like CM.

Although I am curious what makes Samsung phones different than my old Droid Bionic. It has a locked bootloader and can only use Safestrap but it can still flash CM13 in a non-stock ROM slot. Why can'take we?

Perhaps I should call someone like [MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION] in to see if he can clarify or if he knows why.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] jrkruse:
Because on other phones they had ways to trick the phone into letting a custom kernel be flashed. These ways dont work on S5. Also Rom slots dont work on our phone either unless you go back to kitkat, but you were still booting off of main kernel,so still no go
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Dudash:
Thanks for clarifying :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] REAPERxREB0RN:
My Casio GZOne Commando will not load past boot or open boot menu at all. I have tried waiting until the phone says " Now Loading " to do the button combination " Hold the: Power Button, Volume Up Button, and Press the Menu Icon ". I cannot get the boot menu to come up so I can't factory restore it. I have downloaded the SDK tried to run ADB Reboot Recovery in the CMD prompt after installing all of the files I needed to. I cannot get my computer (Windows 10) to offically recognize my phone. By that I mean I plug it into the computer and it makes a sound indicating that it detects a device being plugged in but when I check my computer it does not show up and the Reboot Recovery cannot detect any devices either. I am stuck and don't know what to do. I am pretty sure my device is rooted but am not 100% sure.I think it might be bricked. I'm not extremely informed on how that works but since I can't even run reboot recovery with the button combination or computer that seems to be the case. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

if you still can not unlock boot loader, try to downgrade Zenfone firmware first and then try again to unlock boot loader, you can go back to the latest firmware again after you unlock your boot loader.

TWRP v3.0.0-0 SM-A800I

Just passing through and saw this, so to kill a little time ;):

Latest TWRP v3.0.0-0 for the Samsung Galaxy SM-A800I.

NOTE:

This is a test build and requires a tester who knows how to flash with Odin and recover if required.

It may boot it may not, it sometimes takes a few tries to get the configuration right as I don't own this device.

If it doesn't boot take close note of what happens and describe in detail.

FLASHING CUSTOM STUFF VOIDS YOUR WARRANTY. THIS WILL TRIP THE KNOX FLAG.

Install:

Flash with Odin 3.10.7 using the AP slot.

Uncheck Auto-reboot.

Reboot to recovery immediately after flashing using POWER + HOME + VOL DOWN, as soon as the screen goes blank change to VOL UP whilst still holding the other buttons.

TWRP should now boot.

twrp_3.0.0-0_sm-a800i

The recovery you provided works just fine! There was no issue booting up the phone, i havn't tried to flash a zip file with it yet, but i think it will work.

Other options like terminal and adb open up correctly on the local machine, and there is no reason for them to give issues when actually used for side loading and command input.

I have a recovery.log file if needed.

Thanks a lot, that was the first recovery for Galaxy A8 Sm-A800i.

I request [MENTION=4845638]cheupe[/MENTION] to move the post to the top and change the status to solved. All credits to [MENTION=4899305]ashyx[/MENTION] for successfully compiling the recovery.

Note - Flashing this recovery, or anything other than stock, might make your wifi to stop remembering passwords on reboot. (Only if you have flashed a custom boot.img /kernel). Flashing only the recovery without other modifications should theoretically not cause the issue.

Solution-

Open up system/build.prop, find "ro.securestorage.support=true" and change the "true" to "false" and reboot. Enter your wifi passwords once again and it should be permanant even after reboot.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] ashyx:
Thanks for the feedback, glad it works. Now you guys have the door open for custom roms and root. I will officially release this to XDA if you are happy everything is working.

Regarding your note on the wifi, Recovery shouldn't affect the wifi. Custom kernels that dont have the "ro.securestorage.support=false" set usually have this issue. However that can be fixed.

Did you have an issue with wifi as that is a new one on me with custom recovery?

[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] abhinavparasher:
The wifi problem occurs everytime i flash something that is not stock. Flashing a custom boot.img for root caused the issue. It was fixed with tweaking the build.prop.

Now everytime i flash anything, be it boot or recovery via odin, i have to tweak the build file. The only exception to this is flashing the stock firmwhere.

---------- Post added at 04:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:45 PM ----------

Well as the issue was probably caused by the modified boot.img, its gonna occur only for those who have rooted their phones using that particular method. I am pretty sure flashing just the recovery you provided will not cause the issue. The note was for who are here after rooting. I still dont get it why the build file changes when i flashed the recovery, even though i had tweaked it and not touched the kernel after that. I dont understand the reason for it to change back to true after flashing something such as a recovery.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] ashyx:
Strange I've never heard of that before, I don't see how flashing a custom recovery affects the build.prop they are totally unrelated? Ah well stranger things have happened. :silly:

What did you flash?

You can recover by flashing stock firmware.

NOTE: One of the main reasons for flashing custom recovery is to make a full backup of your device.

I have successfully installed. It is working.

First off: Much gratitude to [MENTION=4419114]rovo89,[/MENTION] [MENTION=4322181]Tungstwenty[/MENTION] and [MENTION=3562083]wanam[/MENTION] for Xposed Framework and Modules:

1. Download the Framework and Module Installer apk and Uninstaller from here. You want the 22sdk arm one. Make sure that the Module installer file is the version 3 alpha4.

Note: This the [MENTION=3562083]wanam[/MENTION] customized version. Please use Wanam's customized file for this. It is more Samsung friendly I think. Tried Rovo89's version and boot looped to extinction.

2. Put the files in your phone storage

3. Install the Module installer FIRST. It is an apk so you just install from your phone.

4. Restart phone.

5. Switch off phone

6. Boot to TWRP (Thanks [MENTION=4899305]ashyx[/MENTION]) Thanks.

7. On install tab then navigate to the sdk 22 arm custom build by wanam file, select and flash. No cache no nothing clean...nothing. Just flash.

8. Reboot to system will take long. The phone shows a running script...optimizing 197 files one by one. When finished, it opens your home screen normally.

9. Go to Module Installer app. On the framework tab it says it is installed and active.

10 Download modules and enjoy...
